It was the second last-ditch winner inside five days after Michael Woods headed in to beat Barrow last Tuesday.

“Looking at the table, it is going to be the most consistent team that wins it,” said Munns. “I don’t think there is going to be a team that’s going to romp it by 10 points.

“Promotion is going to come down to consistency, so keeping going to the end of matches is massive. The difference in getting the win against Barrow rather than a draw and the same at Solihull is four points and that is massive.”

Saturday was a lovely afternoon for anyone with Poolie blood, but especially sweet for Munns. The 23-year-old has been out of favour after being dropped following the home defeat to Fylde in August.

But he has come off the bench in three of the last four games and impressed in each of them.

“It’s been really frustrating, but football can be really up and down, you have to get used to it, “ said the East Londoner. “I have been frustrated – it felt at one point that I was just training and not really getting a sniff, but obviously I scored against Eastleigh and felt I had a positive impact from the bench against Barrow.

“I felt I did on Saturday, that’s all I can keep doing, posing a problem for the gaffer. Ultimately I want to play as many minutes as I can, I believe if I do I can help the team get the three points and get us up the table and get us promotion back to the Football League.”
